Directed by Arun Gopalan, produced by DineshVijan, ShobhnaYadava, Sandeep Leyzell. Written by Ritesh Shah and Ashish Verma with Maddock Films and Bake My Cake films.”
Talking about the film, Abraham had revealed, “It is very Madras Café meets Batla House meets Parmanu. It’s in the geo-political space and I am so excited to start shooting for Tehran. I would probably be the first actor out of India to be shooting in Iran. I am very excited to be there.”
“If you’re invested in the Russia-Ukraine crisis, wonder what China is doing, what Iran is doing, where does Palestine fit in this whole thing, Tehran is about all of this. It’s a stunning film,” he added.
Recently seen and appreciated for his role in Attack, John is gearing for the release of Mohit Suri’s Ek Villain Returns that is slated for a theatrical release on July 29, 2022. The actor is also working on upcoming film, Force 3 and another unnamed film based on bike racing.
